Every Bunny Loves Easter
April in Mt. Morris means warmer temps, budding spring flowers, and fun Easter activities like Easter Bunny photo ops, unique dining options, and egg hunts for the young and not-so-young.
Adults 18 and older can relive their childhood – with a challenging twist – at a nighttime hunt for Easter eggs on the Village square campus, April 12. This popular fundraiser for the Let Freedom Ring (LFR) festival is sponsored by LFR and the Mt. Morris Senior & Community Center. Get details and tickets at the Senior Center or Village Hall. Bring your flashlight or night goggles. You could win more than Easter eggs!
Families are invited to breakfast with the Easter Bunny at the Mt. Morris Moose Lodge on April 19, followed by an egg hunt for kids up to age 12. Though normally a members-only organization, this egg-celent event at 101 Moose Drive is open to the public and had quite a crowd last year.
The White Pines Lodge and restaurant south of Mt. Morris at 6712 W. Pines Road offers two Easter celebrations.
- Easter Bunny breakfast and family fun on April 12, 8-11 a.m., includes face painting, door prizes, and pictures with Mr. Rabbit from 9 to 11. Call 815-655-2400 for reservations.
